Directions~

1. Cut 1 piece of Crumb Cake card stock 3 1/4" x 6". On the 6" length score it at 2" this will form a pocket when you fold on the scored line. I used the stamp from the Charming Set inked it in Crumb Cake and stamped around the edges. I then sponged Crumb Cake ink around the edges.

2. Cut 1 piece of Basic Black card stock 1 3/4" x 3".

3. Cut 1 piece of DSP Newsprint 1 1/2" x 2 3/4". I took the stamps again and stamped in Crumb Cake and the butterfly in Daffodil Delight. Using a Sponge Dauber I sponged the edges with Crumb Cake. I then wrapped 1 /8 Daffodil Delight taffeta ribbon around the bottom. In the upper left hand corner I added 2 Vintage Brads. I then snailed it to the front of the pocket.

4. Cut 2 pieces of Daffodil Delight card stock 1 1/4" x 3 1/4". Use the Scallop Edge Punch and punch one side on both pieces. Using the Mat Pack and Paper-Piercing Tool I punched holes in each scallop. I then sponged Daffodil Delight ink around the edges. I attached one border to the top and the other to the top of the pocket. I then snailed the two sides shut. To finish it off I stamped the imagae in Basic Black on Very Vanilla card stock and punched it out with the 1 1/4" Circle Punch. I stamped the image again in Daffodil Delight on Very Vanilla card stock and punched it out with the 3/4 Circle Punch. Both pieces I sponged Crumb Cake ink around the edges. I then punched out a piece of Daffodil Delight with the 1 3/8" Circle Punch. I added dimensionals between them and then placed a Vintage Brad in the center.

1st project is a Card~

My base is Chocolate Chip card stock. Next is a piece of Garden Green card stock. Using the Big Shot and the Texture Plates Kit #4 I used the plate that looks like tree bark and ran the Garden Green card stock through. I then sponged the edges with Garden Green ink. I cut a piece of Brilliant Blue card stock, stamped the little fly randomly all over in Brilliant Blue ink. Then using the White Gel Pen I made little dashes all around. I cut a strip of Chocolate Chip card stock and on top I placed a piece of Old Olive Patterns DSP, which I used the Scallop Edge Punch on the bottom off. I took some 5/8 Chocolate Chip Grosgrain Ribbon and wrapped around in the center. I added some Natural Hemp Twine on top of that.

I cut a piece of Whisper White card stock, stamped my images in Black Stazon ink and Old Olive ink. I colored the lily pad in with Earth Element Watercolor Wonder Crayons using a Blender Pen. Using the Color Spritzer Tool and Brilliant Blue Marker I spritzed the blue all over the Whisper White card stock. I sponged the edges with Chocolate Chip ink. I then placed a piece of Garden Green card stock behind it and popped it up with Stampin' Dimensionals. At the top I stamped the saying in Brilliant Blue on Whisper White card stock and punched it out with the Small Oval Punch. I sponged the edges with Old Olive ink and placed a Stampin' Dimensional behind it. On the bottom right hand corner I added a bow made out of 1/4 Old Olive Grosgrain Ribbon and Natural Hemp Twine. To finish it off I placed a 5/8 Neutral Jumbo Brad to the right at the top.

This is my little cousin Hayden. He is such a goof and silly all the time. He loves showing off his sunglasses to me. He thinks he is the coolest kid in the world. Of course I think so too :)

My base is Chocolate Chip card stock, then a piece of Brilliant Blue card stock. I stamped the little flies in Brilliant Blue ink randomly all over. I then took the Color Spritzer Tool and Brilliant Blue marker and spritzed all over the card stock. Using the Big Shot and Go Go Boots Sizzlits Alpha I die cut my page title out in Garden Green card stock. I then cut out a piece of Old Olive card stock with the Scallop Circle #2 die, I ran that through the Big Shot along with the Texture Plates Kit #4. I sponged the edges with Old Olive ink. I then added the rest of my title to it, stamped some frogs in Garden Green ink cut them out and popped them up with Stampin Dimensionals. I added the Chocolate Chip log under the frog.

In the center of the page I added a strip of Chocolate Chip card stock, then a piece of the Old Olive Patterns DSP. On the bottom the DSP I punched it out with the Scallop Edge Punch. I added a strip of Brilliant Blue card stock then the 5/8 Chocolate Chip grosgrain ribbon. On top of that I ran some Natural Hemp Twine. I then placed my pictures over the strip, which our mounted on Garden Green card stock. To finish it off I added little dashes at the top with the White Gel Pen and then 3 frogs stamped in Garden Green ink that I cut out and added Stampin' Dimensionals to the back. On the right and left I add 5/8 Neutral Jumbo Brads. On the bottom left hand corner I stamped the lily pad in Black Stazon ink on Whisper White card stock, I colored it in with the Earth Elements Watercolor Wonder Crayons and then cut it out. Placed a Stampin' Dimensional behind that and added in my journaling.

3rd project is a Center Piece~This little project I created can be used for any event, some examples are for a wedding, bridal shower, baby shower, kid's birthday party, retirement party, summer party and etc. I geared mine more towards a wedding.

Using the Big Shot and the Scallop Circle #2 die I cut out a piece in Garden Green card stock. I then ran it through the Big Shot again only this time using the Texture Plates Kit #4, again picking the one that looks like bark. I sponged the edges with Garden Green ink. I then used the Big Shot and Flower, Daisies #2 and cut out flowers in Whisper White card stock. In the center I added a 5/8 Neutral Jumbo Brad. Off to the side I added two little loops of Natural Hemp Twine. I then stamped the log in Chocolate Chip ink onto Whisper White card stock, I stamped two frogs in Old Olive on Whisper White card stock and cut them out. I placed a piece of card stock behind them to stand them up. Last I stamped the say so hoppy for you in Brilliant Blue ink on Whisper White card stock.
